| Bio and Links |
Edward Wise Spannaus of Lovettsville, Loudoun County, Virginia, is Secretary of the Lovettsville Historical Society, and is a Trustee of the Lovettsville Union Cemetery Company.
My ancestors on my mother's side were 18th century emigrants from the Palatinate who first came to Pennsylvania and then Maryland; on my father's side they were 19th century emigrants from Thuringen and also from north Germany, who first came to Wisconsin and Minnesota.
I have been married to Nancy Ellen Bradeen since 1968; her Bradeen ancestors of Maine, arrived in Massachusetts around 1650, and worked in the famous Saugus iron works.
In the Spring of 2012, I was involved in organizing the 150th Anniversary Reunion of Loudoun Ranger descendants. The Independent Loudoun Virginia Rangers were the only military unit from Confederate Virginia to fight with the United States Army in the Civil War. In the course of this, Jen Snoots and I were able to add many more burials to her Loudoun Ranger virtual cemetery, http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=vcsr&GSvcid=45269

 | RE: Rev. F.A. Patterson
His marker is one of the original marker's in the cemetery. He preached at the church where he was buried. I do not want to change what his family put on his marker. Sorry to disappoint, but I do not want to disrespect what is on his marker. Many of the families in this area were large and in later years cousins and brother's and uncles with the exact same names were easily confused.Added by Gina on Feb 24, 2013 8:32 AM | | | JGM

Just a note. The date for Reverand Patterson's death is the same as your Patterson. I have documented that date from the marker and the photo. I So the date is correct. However, I did not personally document his military service. So, I would definitely follow up with the Historical Society of Carroll County GA.Added by Gina on Nov 25, 2012 7:44 AM | | | Gina

This is documented as described in the memorial.
They may be related but are not the same person.

The above is link to the West Georgia Regional Library.
If you click on the Pines Catatog and request Known Confederate Burials Carroll County, the location in special collections wil be given. The historical society has someone in the Special Collection's Room during the week. They may be able to research your name for you.
It most likely is a relative. The Concord Methodist is down the street from me. I can assure you from my personal survey all marked graves have been entered into Find A Grave. The Carroll County Cemetery Volumes have also surveyed the area every few years since the 1980's. There is no other Patterson with exact initial's.Added by Gina on Nov 25, 2012 7:30 AM | | | Ken and Jill Hunt

Hi Edward,
All help is greatly appreciated. The request I rec'd indicated he was buried behind the Primitive Baptist Church on So.Church, but there are only 10-11(?)extant stones there with no inscriptions. It does look like it's been leveled at sometime. I called the number on the front of the church and rec'd a call from a woman who said there are no extant burial records and what is in the back is all that remains. So maybe Johnson was buried in the old part of the Presbyterian Church, and the request has the wrong location. Stranger things have happened. Best wishes,
Maria Raymond | | | | [View all messages...] |
